We're supposed to feel shame about that.
Are we? Can't say that I've ever heard that we should, nor have I ever felt any shame for that. Those two bombs easily saved 10X more lives than they took.
I just read a long opinion essay in a major Canadian newspaper less than 2 weeks ago specifically suggesting we should feel shame as Canadians for helping to create the bombs that were used on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And that as a country we should apologize to Japan for our role in those events. The uranium was enriched not 1 mile from where I sit and type this right now.
So this is how it starts. Don't imagine that there aren't those who work daily to discredit the good that came from the careful use of those bombs at that time.
Thankfully the comments in reaction to the opinion piece were wildly in favour of the author education themselves and shutting up.
But this crap will continue to surface. That's what the left does. Attempt to discredit all institutions and re-write history.
